Golden Globes Gone Baby, Gone
Popsquire trusts you already know that the Golden Globes have been cancelled. Are you wondering what happens to all the contracts entered into for the show?
“Force Majeure” is a standard legal clause in nearly every contract that allows it to be canceled without penalty due to extreme circumstances that prevent the terms of the contract from being fulfilled. These circumstances typically include “acts of God” such as natural disasters or death, or other situations that are beyond the control of either party.
In this case, the WGA strike may trigger that clause.
Don’t fret too much, though, because Popsquire will be discussing Golden Globe nominations and their collisions with law all week long. Stay tuned!

That’s funny, force majeur is an often given excuse for things in Spanish, i was not aware it was a legal term. Of course we don’t say it in French, though.
